It was all-square on the half-hour though when Manny Duku nodded home Dan Trickett-Smith's corner from the left.

The contest looked to be heading for penalties as the second half wore on, but a towering Butlin met Jack Lagnston’s corner into the area and headed past Hednesford keeper Jack Rose with eight minutes remaining.

There was almost a third for the Scholars when Langston left fly with a long-range volley which thumped against the post with Rose beaten.
